JRL After Dark - August 2025

A compilation of the various Jurong Region Line station seen After Dark, before the lights go out.

So we thought we'd try something different - a spinoff from our usual Snapshot update to provide something new. This is the After Dark series - though we're not sure at this point if we can commit to providing such updates as regularly as the Snapshot series. The After Dark feature shows the JRL stations in the evenings, after sunset, where floodlights are used to allow night works up to 10pm. The 10pm cutoff rule is strictly observed to allow residents near the stations to have night time hours undisturbed by the bright lights. While the floodlights are on, its a great way for us to view features within the stations that might be otherwise be unseen during the daytime hours. We hope you'd enjoy the After Dark special.

Station works are underway, with more stations commencing interior works. Track works have ramped up as well, with more stations beginning to receive rails as installation works slowly expand across the first phase of the network. All the details after the jump.

Before we know it, May has come and gone. Perhaps the month felt a little shorter due to the vacation that some of us took during the month. That said, the heat has been relentless over the past month. We're sure that the contractors on the Jurong Region Line (JRL) would have been feeling that - figuratively & literally. The good news is that there has been a significant amount of promising progress made through the various contracts. We'll take a look at this is slightly greater detail after the jump.

April has come upon us so quickly that we've had to rush to get this one out. There's been lots of progress made on the line with several milestones hit - including trackworks commencing on a new section of the line. With roof works underway across the entire phase 1 and viaducts coming together progressively over phase 2, we'll go through the accomplishments of each phase in greater detail after the jump.

J106 - An update in Q1 2025

An aerial view of the Boon Lay Jurong Region Line station in early & end Q1.

A lot has been happening at Boon Lay station on the East-West Line (EWL) as it prepares to be upgraded into an interchange with the upcoming Jurong Region Line (JRL). In addition to the new station being built, the existing station is undergoing several changes to cope with the increased passenger loads and commuter traffic. These works are being carried out under contract J106 which oversees the construction of the new station as well as the addition & alteration works to the existing EWL station. Milestones hit by the contract this past quarter include the completion of the roof frame installation, commencement of the construction of a replacement staircase within the existing station and the beginning of reinstatement works along Jurong West Street 64. We'll explore all these in greater detail after the jump.

J105 - An update in Q1 2025

The two station sites under contract J105 towards the end of Q1 2025.

Through Q1 2025, works under contract J105 have plodded along at the Jurong West and Bahar Junction station sites. Key milestones under the Jurong Region Line (JRL) contract include the commencement of exit podium works at both stations, the commencement of escalator installation works at Bahar Junction station and continued progress on viaduct span construction. We'll take a closer look at the achievements made after the jump.
